ezarowny··on Tailscale's new macOS home
This was driving me nuts but at some point very recently they added a "Hide Dock Icon" to settings.
ezarowny··on Birth of Prettier
I imagine if you add a comma to the end of the `"z": 2` line, Black will not try and push the dict onto a single line.
ezarowny··on Vanishing from Hyundai’s data network
Mazda? Their entire infotainment is just HTML and JavaScript which was quite a shock to discover.
ezarowny··on I like Svelte more than React (it's store management)
If you're writing Svelte code today and you need shared state, I would recommend you start by looking at the Context API (https://svelte.dev/docs/svelte/context). For manual control of data updates you'll probably still want to use Stores (SvelteKit does!) but I'd start with Context first.
ezarowny··on FDA approves a CRISPR-based medicine for treatment of sickle cell disease
This is such good news! I bet a lot of monogenic disorders are on the table now.
ezarowny··on $2,500 Ethernet Switch Effectively Isolates Audiophiles from Cash
Probably the Fellow Ode
ezarowny··on Most internet service providers are gone – Sonic has survived and thrived
I have Sonic's gigabit fiber service and I absolutely love it. I also appreciate that you can get support via SMS.
ezarowny··on Show HN: DICOM Medical Image Parser in Go
I've always found this book to be a good starting place: https://www.amazon.com/Digital-Imaging-Communications-Medici...
ezarowny··on Show HN: DICOM Medical Image Parser in Go
Cool! I haven't worked in the medical field in a while but it's always nice to see more DICOM libraries.
ezarowny··on React v16.6.0: lazy, memo and contextType
I'm likely giving a talk on this exact subject in January (depending on scheduling). If you're curious about the various approaches I've tried, you can reach me at this username in all sorts of places.
ezarowny··on GitLab GCP Migration Project
It seems like Kubernetes+GKE is a big draw: https://venturebeat.com/2018/04/06/why-and-how-gitlab-abando...

I'd be curious to hear if Microsoft buying GitHub had anything to do with it as well.

ezarowny··on Ask HN: Why is Bluetooth so unreliable?
UGH this is a problem with all Hondas before ~2014. Drives me nuts. It's even worse when using it with Google Maps since the audio is delayed.
ezarowny··on Removing Python 2.x support from Django for version 2.0
> Dictionary-based logging configuration

I believe this already exists: https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/logging.config.html#logg...

ezarowny··on Cat-proofing a cat feeding machine
There have also been some curious outages server-side that have caused the feeder to not actually feed.

You would think an IoT device like this would default to using a locally stored schedule or something.

ezarowny··on Cat-proofing a cat feeding machine
The beta model and the production model are both quite easy to remove with a small amount of pressure. The production model takes a bit more work but not much.

This video is from when I had the beta feeder but the same principle applies: https://youtu.be/YHq1xHL8p2o

ezarowny··on Cat-proofing a cat feeding machine
I have the PetNet and my cat has no problem detaching the bowl. Bane of my existence.
ezarowny··on 2016 Retina MacBook Pro Caveats
Never buy a first generation Apple product. I've personally learned that lesson.
ezarowny··on What the Mark of the Beast Taught Me About the Future of Money
As the article makes quite clear, mobile payments are overrated. However, I have experienced a situation where mobile payments have been better than existing systems. Not too long ago, I discovered some fraudulent transactions on my credit card transaction log. My bank, Chase, immediately issued me a new credit card. Apple Pay updated within less than 15 minutes with the new card while it took a number of days for the new credit card to arrive in the mail.
ezarowny··on Musk Says Tesla Cars Will Go 620 Miles per Charge in 2 Years, Autonomous in 3
I haven't seen any of the pod cars yet but I've seen a couple of the Lexus SUV's. I've even seen a few in San Francisco but they're not Google's. I seem to end up biking next to the same one every week or so in Dogpatch. It's a dark red Nissan Leaf without any labeling. I wonder what company owns it.
ezarowny··on Slack Poker Bot
Would you be open to a PR adding HipChat support?
ezarowny··on ‘Sesame Street’ to Air First on HBO for Next 5 Seasons
I'm really looking forwards to a gritty Vice episode covering Oscar the Grouch and homelessness on Sesame Street.
ezarowny··on This Was Sony Music's Contract with Spotify
I can see why Spotify is starting to branch out into other forms of media now.
ezarowny··on Show HN: Untrusted, a JavaScript adventure game you play by modifying its source
I really like that it has WASD/Arrow/Vim controls. Props.
ezarowny··on New Oculus Rift dev kit goes on sale for $350 today, likely ships in July
How much was your discount?
ezarowny··on CircleCI raises $6m Series A
Congrats! We use you guys and you absolutely deserve it.

Also, thanks for the stickers!

ezarowny··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (September 2013)
How exactly does one apply for this position? Your website doesn't mention anything about Chicago.
